Each to their own, but I think the frozen bait is top notch. It's the bait which I choose to use and I have no loyalty or connection with any bait firm....I am also quality not cost driven,
B5 is a good bait as well, don't get me wrong, but I don't see many using it nowadays.....many seem to have gone on to baitworks.
The cork dust pop ups are gash though!

I didnt say the frozen bait was bad, i'm quality not cost driven that's why Baitworks is in my freezer. Is it as good as Essential ? No its not but there's very little in it. give it time though.
What you need to remember is B5 gained it's reputation before the Facebook age, no bull**** YouTube vid's or product placement on a Korda tv show, B5 is based solely on fish in the net. looking at what Baitworks has done I'd say they took Essential as their template, funny how AH is very close to B5 in design
Id happily use either .

To cut this short, I also would be happy to use either. Two of the absolute best out there.

Used both before I was even on Facebook, found B5 to be a mediocre bait, went onto Atlantic Heat and it was all guns blazing, had a season on Royal Marine which was great, but missed the smell of AH so back on there. I know where my boilies are being bought from.
Agree with the comments around wafters and pop ups and use ones from different firms.

I have some from Baitroom called Flame Thrower, deep red in colour with a chilli/spicy undertone.
Complements AH really well

They're rammed with cork dust and only just enough mix to keep them together, retain their flavour for very very little time, and are nothing like the food bait.

When you say keep them together.....
Please explain further? Not having a dig just like a bit more of an explanation.
Only asking as I'd like to really understand what they are doing wrong before I think about using them.
